the official formula 1.com app that is available on iphone, android, and BB is awesome, while you're watching the race you can have a track map on the phone and it shows live positioning of the cars. it's a pretty awesome app. except that it doesn't exist on wp!! i'm pretty annoyed by that.... there is no wp f1 app that compares

By the way, I found this f1 fantasy a few years ago, if you're into that it's quite cool. £60M, 2 drivers, engine, chassis + joker race. Combos can only be used once, so you may not get who you want.
Its free to join, no prizes or anything just glory :)http://www.ff1.co.uk/

You might be interested in our App: F1 Drivers. The app does not do live coverage, but we do deliver the latest news, images, videos from about Formula One from Facebook F1 driver's sites and Youtube in a fast and beautiful app, with search capability: link

I found this post late but I know why there are no apps showing F1 live or with proper Live timing.

The Formula 1 and its associate organisations are becoming a sort of monopoly for live timings, basically de-activating the services which rely on their servers for live timing. I think there are very few libraries still able to provide live timing but will be stopped soon IMO.

The formula 1 tv coverage rights are also too restrictive, so app found doing so will get a cease and desist. I have been trying all the formula 1 apps on windows phone but I was not satisfied with the granularity of data provided by them. So, I developed my own which I kind of use myself.

I hope windows phone devs can really tap into Ergast's F1 Api and produce stunning apps. This API does not provide live timing, but has race data since 1950 and every detail you might need in the past 10 years.

I wish F1 could release something officially soon, I mean Windows 8 outsold Macs in 10 odd days. Either they are friggin' lazy or are developing something albeit at a snail's pace.

Formula association was a reason why we lost "LT - f1livetiming" app - it was done Andrej and it is still working one, but it can not be published or not even reinstalled - I wish that we will get it back ... it is the best F1 app, as it had live timing (pos., laps, gap, etc.) ...

From what I understand SoftPauer used to develop and maintain the official Formula One app on Windows phone but now Formula One Digital Media Limited have taken over responsibility for developing the official F1 mobile app. When they took on the responsibility for the development of the app they discontinued it for Windows Phone.

It's a real shame because the official app gives you live timing and live track positions so you can see them moving around the track

I sent them an email to ask if they have any plans for Windows Phone in the future and their response was;

"Thank for your email.
A Windows Phone version is under discussion for 2015 Race 1.
I will also add your vote to the Win Phone list."

I suggest everyone interested in an official F1 app for windows phone also send an email (fodm[at]fomltd[dot]com) expressing your interest

Being new to the forum I can't post direct links hence the disguised email
